It’s Saturday and time for another fun challenge here at Send a Smile 4 Kids! This time our challenge is CAS (Clean and Simple) 4 Kids! Create and link any CAS card for a child and you could win one of our great prizes.

CAS (clean and simple) can be interpreted any way you wish. We wanted to point out the cards for kids we like to receive do not have to have a ton of layers or embellishments to be enjoyed by our kids. But it does not mean, slap a couple stickers on some paper and call it a card. Check out the TEAM S.A.S. cards below for some lovely CAS examples.

We have three very generous sponsors for this challenge: DRS Designs is giving their winner a $10 gift certificate! A Day for Daisies is giving their randomly picked winner a $12 gift certificate! And Kitchen Sink Stamp’s winner gets a $25 gift certificate!
